What a photo.
GQ: I heard you don’t smoke marijuana anymore.
Lee “Scratch” Perry: I don’t do those things anymore. I don’t drink beer anymore because [raises his arm to show his biceps] beer let you have woman arm. Beer can turn a man into a woman.GQ: Turn a man into a woman? Really?
Lee “Scratch” Perry: You start to have different feminine arm, and act like a woman, and drunk, and get careless.GQ: When you used to smoke, was that important in the music that you made?
Lee “Scratch” Perry: I thought so. Ganja is a medicine—a medicine man, coming to your brain, teach you wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. But if you over-smoke then you’re going to destroy your brain.GQ: I heard that you like to cook curries with it now.
Lee “Scratch” Perry: Ganja? Well, if you want to have a good meal you can curry ganja and have a good ganja meal.GQ: What’s the recipe?
Lee “Scratch” Perry: The same thing that you take curry the meat, the same thing you take curry the fish—take it and curry the marijuana. No problem.GQ: Just marijuana and curry? Nothing else? No vegetables?
Lee “Scratch” Perry: Anything else you want to put in. I like okra.
